Most of the truly wealthy in the United States don't live in Beverly Hills or on Park Avenue. They live next door. America's wealthy seldom get that way through an inheritance or an advanced degree. They bargain-shop for used cars, raise children who don't realize how rich their families are, and reject a lifestyle of flashy exhibitionism and competitive spending. In fact, the glamorous people many of us think of as 'rich' are actually a tiny minority of America's truly wealthy citizens - and behave quite differently than the majority. 'The Millionaire Next Door' provides an examination of America's rich - exposing the seven common qualities that appear over and over among this exclusive demographic.
